Abandoned in PlacePreserving America’s Space History

roland miller; foreword by roger d. launius; prologue by bob thall; introduction by betsy fahlman; essays by craig covault, pamela melroy, & beth laura o’leary

Stenciled on many of the deactivated facilities at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, the evocative phrase “abandoned in place” indicates the structures that have been deserted. Some structures, too solid for any known method of demolition, stand empty and unused in the wake of the early period of US space exploration. Now Roland Miller’s color pho-tographs document the NASA, Air Force, and Army facilities across the nation that once played a crucial role in the space race.

Rapidly succumbing to the elements and demolition, most of the blockhouses, launch towers, tunnels, test stands, and control rooms featured in Abandoned in Place are located at secure military or NASA facilities with little or no public access. Some have been repur-posed, but over half of the facilities photographed no longer exist. The haunting images collected here impart artistic insight while preserving an important period in history.

Every day hundreds of paper airplane enthusiasts visit his website at www.amazingpaperairplanes.com.

Amazing Paper AirplanesThe Craft and Science of Flight

Kyong hwa lee

In this book Kyong Hwa Lee combines the art of origami and the science of flight to create unique paper airplane designs for aviation enthusiasts of all ages. Featuring thirty- two designs, Amazing Paper Airplanes showcases models resembling real-world aircraft, including the F-22 fighter jet, a P-51 World War II plane, the Convair F-102 Delta Dagger—the first supersonic delta-wing interceptor airplane of the US Air Force—and more. For these models, Lee provides information along with an image of the real plane to encour-age interest in aerospace technology. Every design has been flight-tested and presents complete step-by-step folding instructions. In addition to showing basic and advanced folding techniques and providing templates for each plane, the author explains the theory behind flight and offers tips to fine-tune paper airplanes for optimal flying.

P-51 Mustang

P-51 MUSTANG

THE P-51 MUSTANG PAPER airplane is modeled on the North American Aviation P-51 Mustang, a long-range, single-seat, single- engine fighter plane used in World War II and the Korean War. This paper airplane uses a fan-out folding technique to

make the wings. It is a good idea to fold the F-14 Tomcat (see previous design) first before attempting to make this plane, since the fan-out folding is an extension of the technique used in that model. The P-51 Mustang flies very well and is good for outdoor stunts.

Folding Instructions

1. With the patterned side facedown, fold the paper in half, crease, and unfold. Fold the top corners inward to the center line. Then turn the paper over.

3. Fold the triangle section up. 4. Fold the tip down along the top edge line. Rotate paper.

2. Bring the tip down to the bottom edge.

7. Bring the sloping edge to the center line and crease only the upper part (between A and B). [Insert figure 121g here]

5. The model looks like this. Turn the paper over for the next step.

6. Fold down the top layer along the top edge of the lower layer. Then turn over.

8. Now we have to do some tricky, fan-out folding. Bring the top layers to the left (red arrows) and simultaneously push out the folded paper. It is like opening a fan. Check the drawing in the next step—this is what we are aiming for in this fan-out folding.

P-51 Mustang

9. Mountain-fold the fan-shaped flap so that a hor-izontal straight edge is made. Repeat for the right wing, beginning with step 7.

10. Fold the model in half. Choose either a moun-tain fold or a valley fold. The folding instructions in the next steps will assume you are using a valley fold. The photo image of the finished model, how-ever, used the mountain fold in this step.

13. Make an inside reverse fold on the nose tip. Use a piece of double-sided tape to make a flat wing. You may cut a tail fin however you like and tape it. The exact dimension is not important, and it is just an option. The Mustang is ready to fly.

11. Fold the wing tips, fold down the wings, and adjust the creases to match the profile. This is an origami version of the P-51. To go further with cuts and tape, proceed to the next step.

12. Draw the cutting line and cut the wings. Fold down the wings. [Insert figure 121l here]

NORTH AMERICAN P-51D MUSTANG in the Florida International Airshow in March 2014 (airliners.net, photo by Gabor Hajdufi)

The North American Aviation P-51 Mustang entered service with the Allied air forces in the middle years of World War II. In the Korean War it served as the main fighter

plane of the United Nations Joint Command, but it was moved to a ground-attack role as jet fighters became more prevalent.

F-22 RAPTOR

THE F-22 RAPTOR IS a great-looking paper airplane made to resemble the Lockheed Martin/Boeing F-22 Raptor, which is the most outstanding fighter plane ever built.

This paper plane requires many steps and difficult folding. Although it is harder to make, it is certainly one of the most enjoy-able paper airplanes you will fly.

Bad Clownsbenjamin radford

Bad clowns—those malicious misfits of the midway who terrorize, haunt, and threaten us—have long been a cultural icon. This book describes the history of bad clowns, why clowns go bad, and why many people fear them. Going beyond familiar clowns such as the Joker, Krusty, John Wayne Gacy, and Stephen King’s Pennywise, it also features bizarre, lesser-known stories of weird clown antics including Bozo obscenity, Ronald McDonald haters, killer clowns, phantom-clown abductors, evil-clown panics, sex clowns, carnival clowns, troll clowns, and much more. Bad Clowns blends humor, investigation, and scholarship to reveal what is behind the clown’s dark smile.

“Benjamin Radford reviews an amazing array of bad clowns in media from comic books to pornography. He discovers the reasons behind their evil ways, and he analyzes clown aversion. It’s rough stuff, but it is given a skeptical,

scholarly, and engaging treatment.”—JAn HArolD BrunvAnD, AutHor of Be afRaid, Be VeRy afRaid:

Middle of NowhereReligion, Art, and Pop Culture at Salvation Mountain

sara m. patterson

Pilgrims travel thousands of miles to visit Salvation Mountain, a unique religious struc-ture in the Southern California desert. Built by Leonard Knight (1931–2014), variously described as a modern-day prophet and an outsider artist, Salvation Mountain offers a message of divine love for humanity. In Middle of Nowhere Sara M. Patterson argues that Knight was a spiritual descendant of the early Christian desert ascetics who escaped to the desert in order to experience God more fully. Like his early Christian predecessors, Knight received visitors from all over the world who were seeking his wisdom. In Knight’s wisdom they found a critique of capitalism, a challenge to religious divisions, and a cele-bration of the common person. Recounting the pilgrims’ stories, Middle of Nowhere exam-ines how Knight and the pilgrims constructed a sacred space, one that is now crumbling since the death of its creator.

Word DropsA Sprinkling of Linguistic Curiosities

paul anthony jones

From aardvark to zenzizenzizenzic, Word Drops collects a thousand obscure words and language facts in one fascinating chain of word associations. Did you know, for exam-ple, that scandal derives from the Latin for “stumbling block” and originally described a trap for a wild animal? In nineteenth-century slang a wolf trap was a corrupt casino. Casino means “little house” in Italian. Roulette means “little wheel” in French. A wheeler is someone who attends auctions to bid on items merely to increase their sale price. Such links take readers on an unexpected journey through linguistic oddities. Inspired by the popular @HaggardHawks Twitter account, Word Drops also uses an intriguing series of annotations to add background and historical context on everything from Anglo-Saxon cures for insanity to Samuel Pepys’s cure for a hangover. This unique book will delight anyone who loves language, etymology, and word games.

The Girls in My TownEssays

angela morales

The autobiographical essays in The Girls in My Town create an unforgettable portrait of a family in Los Angeles. Reaching back to her grandmother’s childhood and navi-gating through her own girlhood and on to the present, Angela Morales contemplates moments of loss and longing, truth and beauty, motherhood and daughterhood. She writes about her parents’ appliance store and how she escaped from it, the bowling alley that provided refuge, and the strange and beautiful things she sees while riding her bike in the early mornings. She remembers fighting for equal rights for girls as a sixth grader, calling the cops when her parents fought, and listening with her mother to Helen Reddy’s “I Am Woman,” the soundtrack of her parents’ divorce. Poignant, serious, and funny, Morales’s book is both a coming-of-age story and an exploration of how a writer discovers her voice.

“Beautifully written, sharply perceptive. . . . I love this writer’s voice, the way she writes humor and sorrow and disappointment with such humanity and intelligence. These essays are wonderfully universal, for all of their intimacy.

I never wanted to stop reading.”—CHeryl strAyeD, AutHor of Wild: fRom losT To found on The pacific cResT TRail

“The job of the essayist, like any storyteller, is to chase a rabbit down a hole and see where it goes. When I started writing these essays, each of these pieces began with a single image that appeared distinctly in my mind: a bowling ball, a stack of school lunch trays, my father’s gun, a dying rat, a burrito, a lost dog, a pregnant teenager, my grand-mother on her death bed. For the longest time, these images haunted me until I had no choice but to sit down and write about them.

. . .As I breathed life into these essays, they became my oddly shaped children. All lined up and standing side by side, my beloved orphans are now assembled into one family por-trait—one that reaches back to the childhood of my grandmother and ends with my own daughter’s childhood. It’s an unconventional portrait, to be sure, but hopefully it illumi-nates a time and place and adds another perspective to the mix.”

The Day after DeathA Novel

lynn c. miller

After a minor car accident shatters her equilibrium, forty-three-year-old Amanda Fergu-son wakes up to a memory of being terrorized by her older brother Adrian, whom she holds responsible for the death of her twin brother thirty years before. Their mother, Eva, blinded by devotion to her eldest son, has locked the truth inside her now-failing memory.

When Amanda attends a performance of Harold Pinter’s Betrayal, a haunting series of events related to the play resurfaces, including the suicide of Amanda’s college lover, Sarah Moore. As Amanda puts her fractured life back together, the present increasingly echoes her traumatic past, propelling her toward the truth about Duncan’s and Sarah’s deaths––and toward Adrian. Set against the background of the theater, The Day after Death explores how loss and family trauma affect our ability to connect, trust, and love.

Magpie’s BlanketA Novel

Kimberly d. schmidt; with jennifer a. whiteman; foreword by henrietta mann

In this thoughtful novel Kimberly D. Schmidt brings to life the history of Plains Indian women and the white invasion—an account not solely of violence and bloodshed but also of healing and forgiveness. Magpie’s Blanket begins with the story of a young Southern Cheyenne woman who survived the horrific Sand Creek Massacre in 1864 only to witness a second attack on her people at the Washita Massacre in 1868. Through the memories of three generations of Cheyenne people, the novel recounts the events of the massacres and the century-late reconciliation after the townspeople’s misguided attempt to re-create the “battle” of the Washita with descendants of US soldiers.

“How enlightening to read the stories of Sand Creek and the Washita from the points of view of the women who survived them. . . . reveals deep cultural truths of the tribe.”

A Distant HeartbeatA War, a Disappearance, and a Family’s Secrets

eunice lipton

On May 20, 1938, a young man from the Bronx informs his parents that he is leaving for the Catskills to begin his new job as a waiter. Instead, he sails for Europe to join the Abraham Lincoln Brigade in the Spanish Civil War, the opening round in the fight against Hitler and Mussolini. The man, Dave Lipton—the author’s uncle—sends letter after letter home detailing his hopes and begging for forgiveness. He never receives a reply.

Decades later, Eunice Lipton stumbles upon clues for this silence, uncovering details of Dave’s exhilarating political life in New York, his shuttered romantic life, and his deep friendship with another volunteer. A Distant Heartbeat tells a tale of passion and heroism, centered on a fierce competition between brothers, a packet of missing letters, and the unforeseen results of family betrayal.

“Lipton has fashioned an unusual and compelling memoir in which the actual and the imagined are vividly braided together.”

This book of stories and recipes introduces two eccentric families that would never have eaten together, let alone exchanged recipes, but for the improbable marriage of the author’s parents: a nuevomexicano from Taos and a painter who came from Texas to New Mexico to study art. Recalling the good and the terrible cooks in her family, Anita Rodríguez also shares the complications of navigating a safe path among contradictory cultural per-spectives. Accompanied by Rodríguez’s vibrant paintings—including scenes of people eating on fiesta nights and plastering an adobe church—Coyota in the Kitchen shows how food reflects the complicated family histories that shape our lives.

The Tombstone RaceStories

josé sKinner

A teenager accused of homicide finds little support from his family or community. A woman in a conservative town must find ways to protect her gay brother from their mili-taristic mother. A graduate student discovers that his research has been stolen, probably by the same street gang he has been studying. A former police officer, fired for shooting a deranged man, patrols his own neighborhood. Set in places as diverse as Fort Sumner, Taos, Chimayó, Albuquerque, Santa Fe, and Clovis, the fourteen stories in The Tombstone Race explore the surprising connections and disjunctions between rich and poor, urban and rural, old and new, ugly and beautiful. Based in part on the author’s experiences as a Spanish/English interpreter in the criminal courts of New Mexico, Skinner’s stories navigate the state’s changing cultures with humor and heart.

“A rare and stunning collection. . . . Skinner has brought [these stories] to us in such shimmering prose and unflinching empathy, we are in his debt.”

Set in southwestern New Mexico, the stories in James Terry’s stunning debut explore the joys, insecurities, and failures of memorable characters as they attempt to connect with— or disconnect from—others around them. The elderly landlady of the Darling Courts apartments hires a reclusive handyman who suffers from a fear of water, and the pair forms an unlikely bond. A worker’s unscrupulous plan to build a road in the middle of the desert is threatened by a lonely pregnant woman living in a trailer parked directly in his path. Overcome by nostalgia, a married trucker making the California run from Waco to Los Angeles takes a truck-stop waitress to the Deming drive-in theater with disappointing results. Together, these surprising stories uncover how our environment manifests itself in our everyday lives.

“Kingdom of the Sun offers an honest, authentic, and poignantly revealing vision of how we become who we are.”

—steve Heller, AutHor of WhaT We choose To RememBeR

james terry’s fiction has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize and the O. Henry Prize, and his stories have appeared in the Iowa Review, the Georgia Review, Fiction, and elsewhere. Born and raised in Deming, New Mexico, Terry now resides in Liverpool, England.

Hiking to HistoryA Guide to Off-Road New Mexico Historic Sites

robert julyan

With more than 13,000 years of human habitation, New Mexico offers a wealth of his-toric sites located on vast tracts of land well off the beaten path. As author Robert Julyan observes, not much history has been made from a speeding car, and locations that have to be reached on foot are almost always less altered by parking lots, visitor centers, road-ways, or traffic noise. Written for both outdoor enthusiasts and vicarious travelers, Hiking to History describes the historical significance behind these publically accessible sites and includes GPS coordinates to enable readers to find each place. Ranging from the state’s principal Civil War battlefield at Glorieta to the dirt road where a broken wagon wheel led two young artists to settle in Taos in 1898, the scenes provide an up-close experience of the state’s remarkable past.

“Bob Julyan is the perfect guide to lead us on these captivating trips into the past.”—riCHArD melzer, CoAutHor of a hisToRy of neW mexico since sTaTehood

Best Plants for New Mexico Gardens and LandscapesKeyed to Cities and Regions in New Mexico and Adjacent Areas, Revised and Expanded Edition

baKer h. morrow

First published in 1995, this invaluable guide to the trees, shrubs, ground covers, and smaller plants that thrive in New Mexico’s many life zones and growing areas is now available in a long-awaited new edition. Landscape architect Baker H. Morrow considers the significant factors that impact planting in New Mexico—including soil conditions, altitude, drought, urban expansion, climate change, and ultraviolet radiation—to pro-vide the tools for successful gardens and landscapes in the state. Added photographs and sketches identify the forms and uses of plants, including many new species that have become widely available in the region since the 1990s. With ingenuity and efficient water management, Morrow demonstrates how to create landscapes that provide shade, color, oxygen, soil protection, windscreening, and outdoor enjoyment.

Internationally renowned photographer Lucian Niemeyer and National Park Service his-torian Art Gómez have combined talents in this stunning presentation of the Land of Enchantment. Niemeyer’s more than 150 color photographs and Gómez’s sweeping his-tory encompass the entire state throughout the seasons, presenting the region’s people, cultures, and magnificent scenery. New Mexico’s mountains, deserts, and rivers form natural corridors that migrating birds and animals have traditionally used for survival. Navigating these same corridors across the state, Paleo, Plains, and Pueblo Indians, His-panos, and Anglos forged viable communities on the astringent New Mexican landscape.

The Zeon FilesArt and Design of Historic Route 66 Signs

marK c. childs & ellen d. babcocK

In the mid-twentieth century Eddie’s Inferno Cocktail Lounge, Bunny Bread, Paris Shoe Shop, and many other businesses throughout New Mexico and the Southwest displayed eye-catching roadside signs created by the Zeon Corporation. These works of commercial art featured unique designs, irregular shapes, dynamic compositions, and neon light. The legendary fiesta dancer at the Albuquerque Terrace drive-in theater, for example, was well-known for the grace of its lines, its enormous size, and its flashing neon skirt. Cre-ated during a time before the simplified icons of major chains, many of these culturally significant artworks no longer exist. The Zeon Files rescues these historic artifacts from obscurity, presenting a collection of the working drawings of historic Route 66–era signs. In addition to presenting a visually rich archive, the authors discuss the working methods of design and construction and the craft of drafting techniques during this innovative era of American sign making.

arden reed

In this collection of seventy-six collages, strange things happen. Rocks fall out of the sky, and people also. Enormous knives threaten unprotected flesh, and mouths stretch to the point of pain. But then these scenes of horror are punctuated by moments of sur-real humor—like fishermen landing human brains or sportsmen catching them. On first viewing, such bizarre, often nightmarish scenes look worlds apart from Mito’s “realistic” paintings and drawings. However, reflection reveals that her two bodies of work don’t simply complement, they actually complete each other. To comprehend this singular artist’s accomplishment you need both. Taken together, Mito’s work makes us see the strange in the familiar and recognize the familiar in what looks strange.

Sally MaxwellScratching the Surface

todd wilKinson; foreword by john banovich

This monograph covers the life and career of wildlife artist Sally Maxwell, a pioneer in scratchboard painting. Maxwell is credited with advancing a medium that had been for years relegated to illustrators and children. Because of her persistence and determination, thousands of artists today use scratchboard, and not only for monochromatic drawings; many have learned to add color and dimension through demonstrations and videos cre-ated by Maxwell through Ampersand. With more than one hundred plates, Maxwell’s career and the evolution of scratchboard come to life. The text includes a foreword by acclaimed wildlife artist John Banovich and an astute essay by Todd Wilkinson.

Family ResemblancesPoems

carrie shipers

The poems in Family Resemblances unfold in a series of overlapping narratives in which characters struggle with injury and healing, violence and fear, courage and forgiveness. Throughout this beautiful volume, the multiple meanings of family—whether formed by biology or choice—are questioned through careful attention to the often conflicting notions of connection, inheritance, absence, and escape. The truths these poems find are much like life itself: complex, provisional, and rich.

“As the narrator sets out ‘To see myself the size I really am,’ we accompany her on this quest back and forth through time and the lives of her family as she uses all

instruments available to learn what she must know.”—CArole simmons oles, AutHor of a selecTed hisToRy of heR heaRT: poems

Nobody’s Jackknifeellen mcgrath smith

With insight, humor, and uncompromising honesty, Nobody’s Jackknife explores power and powerlessness, violence and tenderness, addiction and love. These poems refuse to separate the mundane from the profound: Rolling Rock beer, the racial coding of baseball players, and a melodic litany of yoga asanas intertwine in this brilliant and compelling collection. In 1960s Pittsburgh, a young girl finds her way to adulthood in a family domi-nated by a hard-drinking, blue-collar father, brothers who excel at baseball and machismo, and a pervasive but ultimately distant Catholicism. Her mother, unable to rescue her, offers two lifelines: reading and yoga. Using an astonishing array of poetic styles, Ellen McGrath Smith shows a rare gift for subtlety, an expansive intellect, and a sometimes brutal candor in this groundbreaking debut collection.

ellen mcgrath smith’s award-winning poetry, short fiction, literary criticism, and scholarship have been pub-lished in anthologies and print and online journals nation-wide. She has received the Zone 3 Rainmaker Award, the Orlando Prize from the A Room of Her Own Foundation, and other honors. A teacher at the University of Pittsburgh and Carlow University, McGrath Smith holds an MFA in poetry from the University of Pittsburgh and a PhD in English literature from Duquesne University. She lives, writes, works, and practices yoga in Pittsburgh, Pennsylva-nia, where she was born and raised.

A Bloody and Barbarous GodThe Metaphysics of Cormac McCarthy

petra mundiK

A Bloody and Barbarous God investigates the relationship between gnosticism and the perennial philosophy and how these traditions have influenced the later novels of Cormac McCarthy, namely, Blood Meridian, All the Pretty Horses, The Crossing, Cities of the Plain, No Country for Old Men, and The Road. Mundik argues that McCarthy continually strives to evolve an explanatory theodicy throughout his work, and that his novels are, to a lesser or greater extent, concerned with the meaning of human existence in relation to the pres-ence of evil and the nature of the divine.

“Mundik’s book tackles the challenging complexity and darkness of McCarthy’s metaphysical vision and finds a consistency of vision throughout his novels that is

both profound and—in all senses of the word—illuminating.”—lyDiA r. CooPer, AutHor of no moRe heRoes: naRRaTiVe peRspecTiVe and

True and Living Prophet of DestructionCormac McCarthy and Modernity

nicholas monK

Cormac McCarthy’s work sounds warnings of impending apocalypse, but it also implies that redemption remains available. Nicholas Monk argues that McCarthy’s response to the modern world is more subtle and less laden with despair than many realize, and that his work represents an understanding of the world that transcends the political divisions of right and left, escapes the reductive nature of identity politics, and looks to futures beyond the immediately adjacent. He positions McCarthy as an acute chronicler of the American condition at the beginning of a new century.

Tracing the development of modernity, Monk explores the associated political and philosophical undercurrents in McCarthy and identifies how they are generated and what they oppose. He focuses on language, aesthetics, violence, the spiritual, and the natural environment and the animals that inhabit it. He examines the experience of engaging with McCarthy’s fiction in order to reveal why so many people report that “reading Cor-mac McCarthy changed my life.”

Breaking Down Breaking BadCritical Perspectives

edited by matt wanat & leonard engel

The story of Walter White’s transformation from chemistry teacher to drug lord has cap-tured the imagination of television viewers around the world. This collection of essays sets the series in the context of American culture, analyzing its reinvention of classic themes in literature.

A protagonist who sets out on a quest and discovers things about himself and the world is a common enough convention in American storytelling. Typically the hero encounters evil along the way and acquires worldly wisdom. Vince Gilligan, the creator of Breaking Bad, offers a dynamic variant of this quest, posing the question of how far a desperate man facing death will go in order to achieve a sense of self and financial security for his family. Going beyond the obvious ethical issues that have preoccupied viewers and crit-ics alike, the essays in this book cut across disciplines, delve deeply into contemporary issues, and explore the pure pleasure and entertainment value of the series.

A Drama of the SouthwestThe Critical Edition of a Forgotten Play

jean toomer; edited by carolyn j. deKKer

“Dekker restores Jean Toomer to his rightful place as a writer who continued to grapple with important issues of region and place, outsider- and insiderness, and

gender and cultural politics long after he published his seminal novel, Cane, in 1923.”—lois PAlken ruDniCk, AutHor of uTopian VisTas: The maBel dodge luhan house

and The ameRican counTeRculTuRe

Jean Toomer (1894–1967) was a modernist writer, a member of the Harlem Renaissance, and briefly part of the artistic community that grew up around Mabel Dodge Luhan in Taos, New Mexico. This book, a critical edition of a previously unpublished 1935 manuscript, makes A Drama of the Southwest available to readers for the first time.

In Appropriate DistanceThe Ethics of the Photographic Essay

Kelly Klingensmith

What is the evolving relationship between words and images in the photographic essay? How do the purpose and form of the photographic essay change over time? And how are relationships between the contributors, subject, and readers communicated explicitly and implicitly in both content and form? Klingensmith explores these questions in In Appro-priate Distance as she traces the development of the photographic essay from the 1890s to the 1990s and beyond.

By examining classic examples such as How the Other Half Lives, American Exodus, and Let Us Now Praise Famous Men, as well as more contemporary projects including work by John Berger, Jean Mohr, Wendy Ewald, and Zana Briski, Klingensmith examines the codependence of words and images and the long-standing collaboration required of cre-ator and subject in this exploration of the ethics of representation.

Creating Charismatic Bonds in ArgentinaLetters to Juan and Eva Perón

donna j. guy

In collecting hundreds of letters to Juan and Eva by everyday people as well as from cor-respondence solicited by Juan Perón, this book promotes a view that charismatic bonds in Argentina have been formed as much by Argentines as by their leaders, demonstrating how letter writing at that time instilled a sense of nationalism and unity, particularly during the first Five Year Plan campaign conducted in 1946. It goes beyond the question of how charisma influenced elections and class affiliation to address broader implica-tions. The letters offer a new methodology to study the formation of charisma in literate countries where not just propaganda and public media but also private correspondence defined and helped shape political polices. Focusing on the first era of Peronism, from 1946 to 1955, this work shows how President Perón and the First Lady created charismatic ways to link themselves to Argentine supporters through letter writing.

Gendered CrossingsWomen and Migration in the Spanish Empire

allyson m. posKa

Between 1778 and 1784 the Spanish Crown transported more than 1,900 peasants, includ-ing 875 women and girls, from northern Spain to South America in an ill-fated scheme to colonize Patagonia. The story begins as the colonists trudge across northern Spain to volunteer for the project and follows them across the Atlantic to Montevideo. However, before the last ships reached the Americas, harsh weather, disease, and the prospect of mutiny on the Patagonian coast forced the Crown to abandon the project. Eventually, the peasant colonists were resettled in towns outside of Buenos Aires and Montevideo, where they raised families, bought slaves, and gradually integrated into colonial society. Gendered Crossings brings to life the diverse settings of the Iberian Atlantic and the transformations in the peasants’ gendered experiences as they moved around the Spanish Empire.

Slavery and PoliticsBrazil and Cuba, 1790–1850

rafael marquese, tâmis parron, & márcia berbel; translated by leonardo marques

The politics of slavery and slave trade in nineteenth-century Cuba and Brazil is the sub-ject of this acclaimed study, first published in Brazil in 2010 and now available for the first time in English. Cubans and Brazilians were geographically separate from each other, but they faced common global challenges that unified the way they re-created their slave sys-tems between 1790 and 1850 on a basis completely departed from centuries-old colonial slavery. Here the authors examine the early arguments and strategies in favor of slavery and the slave trade and show how they were affected by the expansion of the global mar-ket for tropical goods, the American Revolution, the Haitian Revolution, the collapse of Iberian monarchies, British abolitionism, and the international pressure opposing the transatlantic slave trade. This comprehensive survey contributes to the comparative his-tory of slavery, placing the subject in a global context rather than simply comparing the two societies as isolated units.

A Persistent RevolutionHistory, Nationalism, and Politics in Mexico since 1968

randal sheppard

Sheppard explores Mexico’s profound political, social, and economic changes through the lens of the persistent political power of Mexican revolutionary nationalism. By examining the major events and transformations in Mexico since 1968, he shows how historical myths such as the Mexican Revolution, Benito Juárez, and Emiliano Zapata as well as Catholic nationalism emerged during historical-commemoration ceremonies, in popular social and anti-neoliberal protest movements, and in debates between commentators, politicians, and intellectuals. Sheppard provides a new understanding of developments in Mexico since 1968 by placing these events in their historical context.

The work further contributes to understandings of nationalism more generally by showing how revolutionary nationalism in Mexico functioned during a process of state dismantling rather than state building, and it shows how nationalism could serve as a powerful tool for non-elites to challenge the actions of those in power or to justify new citizenship rights as well as for elites seeking to ensure political stability.

Precarious Paths to FreedomThe United States, Venezuela, and the Latin American Cold War

aragorn storm miller

Miller analyzes US-Venezuelan relations during the 1950s and 1960s as a case study for the broader political dynamics of the hemisphere and beyond during the critical period of the global Cold War. He addresses the perception that US foreign policy toward Latin America was an overwhelming failure in which initiatives intended to promote democ-racy and modernization, and to insulate the hemisphere from the ideological struggles of the global Cold War, reaped only authoritarian regimes, uneven and sluggish economic growth, and abstract debates over capitalism and communism that distracted attention from Latin America’s pressing socioeconomic problems. Precarious Paths to Freedom demonstrates that Washington rather achieved success by cultivating a partnership with a democratizing Venezuela. From 1958 onward US policymakers identified Venezuela as the crucial bulwark against political extremism and as the ideal partner in the creation of a modernized, prosperous, and pro-US Latin America.

Volunteering for a CauseGender, Faith, and Charity in Mexico from the Reform to the Revolution

silvia marina arrom

This thoughtful study challenges a number of widespread assumptions about the role of Catholicism in Mexican history by examining two related Catholic charities: the male Society of St. Vincent de Paul and the Ladies of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul. With thousands of volunteers, these lay groups not only survived the liberal reforms of the mid-nineteenth century but thrived, offering educational, medical, and other services to hundreds of thousands of poor people.

Arrom stresses the prominence of women among the volunteers, showing the many ways that Catholicism promoted Mexican modernization rather than being an obstacle to it. Moreover, by reinserting religion into public life, these organizations defied the sec-ularizing policies of the Mexican government. By comparing the male and female orga-nizations collectively, the work shows that the relationship between gender, faith, and charity was much more complicated than is usually believed.

The Pueblo Bonito Mounds of Chaco CanyonMaterial Culture and Fauna

edited by patricia l. crown

Chaco Canyon has one of the most significant concentrations of archaeological remains in North America. Pueblo Bonito, the largest and best known of Chaco’s great houses, was largely excavated in the late 1890s and early 1920s, but then no extensive excavations were conducted at the site until a team of archaeologists from the University of New Mexico began work there in 2004. In exploring the possible evidence of water-control features, archaeologists recovered some 200,000 artifacts. Here they use the artifacts and fauna they found to examine the lives and activities of the inhabitants of Pueblo Bonito as well as to further interpret current models of Chaco archaeology. The contribu-tors particularly focus on questions regarding crafts production, long-distance exchange relationships, and evidence for feasting and other ritual behavior. The results from the 2004–2008 excavations challenge many interpretations related to the daily activities of the Pueblo Bonito population while supporting others.

The Archaeology of Andean Pastoralismedited by josé m. capriles & nicholas tripcevich

In this book leading experts uncover and discuss archaeological topics and themes surrounding the long-term trajectory of camelid (llama and alpaca) pastoralism in the Andean highlands of South America. The chapters explore the themes of intensification of herding over time, animal-human relationships, and social transformations, as well as navigate four areas of recent research: the origins of domesticated camelids, variation in the development of pastoralist traditions, ritual and animal sacrifice, and social interac-tion through caravans. Andeanists and pastoral scholars alike will find this comprehen-sive work an invaluable contribution to their library and studies.

Killing CivilizationA Reassessment of Early Urbanism and Its Consequences

justin jennings

The concept of civilization has long been the basis for theories about how societies evolve. This provocative book challenges that concept. The author argues that a “civilization bias” shapes academic explanations of urbanization, colonization, state formation, and cultural horizons. Earlier theorists have criticized the concept, but according to Jennings the crit-ics remain beholden to it as a way of making sense of a dizzying landscape of cultural variation. Relying on the idea of civilization, he suggests, holds back understanding of the development of complex societies.

Killing Civilization uses case studies from across the modern and ancient world to develop a new model of incipient urbanism and its consequences, using excavation and survey data from Çatalhöyük, Cahokia, Harappa, Jenne-jeno, Tiahuanaco, and Monte Albán to create a more accurate picture of the turbulent social, political, and economic conditions in and around the earliest cities. The book will influence not just anthropology but all of the social sciences.

ChildhoodOrigins, Evolution, and Implications

edited by courtney l. meehan & alyssa n. crittenden

This collection is the first to specifically address our current understanding of the evo-lution of human childhood, which in turn significantly affects our interpretations of the evolution of family formation, social organization, cultural transmission, cognition, ontogeny, and the physical and socioemotional needs of children. Moreover, the impor-tance of studying the evolution of childhood has begun to extend beyond academic mod-eling and into real-world applications for maternal and child health and well-being in contemporary populations around the world. Combined, the chapters show that what we call childhood is culturally variable yet biologically based and has been critical to the evolutionary success of our species; the significance of integrating childhood into models of human life history and evolution cannot be overstated. This volume further demon-strates the benefits of interdisciplinary investigation and is sure to spur further interest in the field.

Why Forage?Hunters and Gatherers in the Twenty-First Century

edited by brian f. codding & Karen l. Kramer

Foraging persists as a viable economic strategy both in remote regions and within the bounds of developed nation-states. Given the economic alternatives available, why do some groups choose to maintain their hunting and gathering lifeways? Through a series of detailed case studies, the contributors to this volume examine the decisions made by modern-day foragers to sustain a predominantly hunting and gathering way of life. What becomes clear is that hunter-gatherers continue to forage because the economic bene-fits of doing so are high relative to the local alternatives and, perhaps more importantly, because the social costs of not foraging are prohibitive; in other words, hunter-gatherers value the social networks built through foraging and sharing more than the potential marginal gains of a new means of subsistence. Why Forage? shows that hunting and gathering continues to be a viable and vibrant way of life even in the twenty-first century.

Muslim Youth and the 9/11 Generationedited by adeline masquelier & benjamin f. soares

A new cohort of Muslim youth has arisen since the attacks of 9/11, facilitated by the pro-liferation of recent communication technologies and the Internet. By focusing on these young people as a heterogeneous global cohort, the contributors to this volume—who draw from a variety of disciplines—show how the study of Muslim youth at this particular historical juncture is relevant to thinking about the anthropology of youth, the anthropol-ogy of Islamic and Muslim societies, and the post-9/11 world more generally. These schol-ars focus on young Muslims in a variety of settings in Asia, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, and North America and explore the distinct pastimes and performances, processes of civic engagement and political action, entrepreneurial and consumption practices, forms of self-fashioning, and aspirations and struggles in which they engage as they seek to understand their place and make their way in a transformed world.

Linking the Histories of SlaveryNorth America and Its Borderlands

edited by bonnie martin & james f. brooKs

This volume has brought together scholars from anthropology, history, psychology, and ethnic studies to share their original research into the lesser-known stories of slavery in North America and reveal surprising parallels among slave cultures across the continent. Although they focus on North America, these scholars also take a broad view of slavery as a global historical phenomenon and describe how coercers and the coerced, as well as outside observers, have understood what it means to be a “slave” in various times and cultures, including in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The contributors explore the links between indigenous customs of coercion before European contact, those of the tumultuous colonial era, some of the less-familiar paradigms of slavery before the Civil War, and the hazy legal borders between voluntary and involuntary servitude today.

Each contribution shows how social science research can evolve into advocacy, collaboration, and friendship—activist work that exemplifies the continuing concerns of applied and practicing social scientists in an anthropology increasingly cognizant of both its past and its potential impact on power and equity.

Things in MotionObject Itineraries in Anthropological Practice

edited by rosemary a. joyce & susan d. gillespie

Complementing the concept of object biography, the contributors to this volume use the complex construct of “itineraries” to trace the places in which objects come to rest or are active, the routes through which things circulate, and the means by which they are moved. The contributors advocate for a broader engagement with the mobility of things, from the point at which things emerge from source material to the organization of their manufacture and use, their subsequent movements as mediated by economic and ritual exchanges, their deposition in places that become archaeological sites, their emergence through research and subsequent curation in museum collections, and their circulation in the contemporary world, including through reproduction in other media. Ultimately, the contributors explore movement as a fundamental capacity of things and demonstrate the dynamic capacity of things in motion.

Disturbing BodiesPerspectives on Forensic Anthropology

edited by zoë crossland & rosemary a. joyce

As bodies are revealed, so are hidden and often incommensurate understandings of the body after death. The theme of “disturbing bodies” has a double valence, evoking both the work that anthropologists do and also the ways in which the dead can, in turn, disturb the living through their material qualities, through dreams and other forms of presence, and through the political claims often articulated around them. These may include national or ethnic narratives that lay claims to bodies, personal memories and histories maintained by relatives, or the constitution of the corpse through performative acts of exhumation, display, and analysis. At the center of this work are forensic anthropologists. Although often considered narrowly in terms of its technical and methodological aspects, forensic practice draws upon multiple dimensions of anthropology, and this volume offers a range of anthropological perspectives on the work of exhumation and the attendant issues.

Making DisastersClimate Change, Neoliberal Governance, and Livelihood Insecurity on the Mongolian Steppe

craig r. janes & oyuntsetseg chuluundorj

Although extreme winter events have always threatened herders on the Central Asian steppe, the frequency and severity of these disasters have increased since Mongolia’s tran-sition from a socialist Soviet satellite state to a free-market economy. This book describes the significant challenges caused by the retreat of the state from the rural economy and its consequences not only for rural herders but for the country as a whole. The authors analyze a broad range of phenomena that are fundamentally linked to the adverse social and economic consequences of climate change, including urbanization and urban pov-erty, access to essential health care and education, changes to gender roles (especially for women), rural economic development and resource extraction, and public health more generally. They argue that the intersection of neoliberal economics and the ideologies that sustain it with climate change and its attendant hazards has created a perfect storm that has had and will continue to have disastrous consequences for Mongolia.

First Coastal Californiansedited by lynn h. gamble

About 13,000 years ago a man died on the steep banks of Arlington Canyon on Santa Rosa Island, one of California’s Channel Islands. The early dates for Arlington Springs Man, as he came to be known, and archaeological sites in the Northern Channel Islands, overturn the once widely held belief that the first humans to enter the Americas came by foot over the Bering Land bridge—perhaps, instead, they found their way to the Americas by boat. During the thousands of years between the arrival of those first seafarers on the Channel Islands and the arrival of the British, Spanish, and Russians, diverse waves of indigenous groups swelled coastal California’s population.

This book chronicles how indigenous peoples of the past survived in the shifting envi-ronment of coastal California. One can’t help but wonder what life would be like today for the California Indians if the Europeans and Russians had never stepped ashore. What we do know is that after hundreds of years of exploration, the Spanish and Russians col-onized coastal California, establishing powerful institutions that changed the lives of the California Indians forever. During this stunning era of change, resistance, cooperation, and persistence, the first coastal Californians wove a complex tangle of cultures.

Icon, Cult, and ContextSacred Spaces and Objects in the Classical World: Essays in Honor of Susan B. Downey

edited by maura K. heyn & ann irvine steinsapir

This festschrift honors UCLA professor emerita Susan Downey and her meticulous schol-arship on religious architecture and imagery in the Roman/Hellenistic world. The ico-nography of gods and goddesses, the analysis of sacred imagery in the context of ancient cult practices, and the design and decoration of sacred spaces are the main themes of the book. Authors examine such subjects as painting from Dura-Europos, Hellenistic sculp-ture at Saqqara in Egypt, Roman cameo glass, Pompeian fresco, and aspects of Venus in portrait sculpture. The essays on Dura-Europos are especially valuable in light of the present turmoil in the region.

Downey’s influence shines through in these discussions, which echo her mentorship of several generations of art history and archaeology students and recognize her scholarly achievements. The broad temporal and geographic parameters of the volume are expan-sive, and the juxtaposition of images and analyses leads to surprising new conclusions.

Altera RomaArt and Empire from Mérida to México

edited by john m. d. pohl & claire l. lyons

Altera Roma explores the confrontation of two cultures, European and Amerindian, and two empires, Spanish and Aztec. In an age of exploration and conquest, Spanish soldiers, missionaries, and merchants brought an array of cultural preconceptions. Their encoun-ter with Aztec civilization coincided with Europe’s rediscovery of classical antiquity, and Tenochtitlán came to be regarded a “second Rome,” or altera Roma. Iberia’s past as the Roman province of Hispania served to both guide and critique the Spanish overseas mission. The dialogue that emerged between the Old World and the New World shaped a dual heritage into the unique culture of Nueva España. In this volume, ten eminent historians and archaeologists examine the analogies between empires widely separated in time and place and consider how monumental art and architecture created “theater states,” a strategy that links ancient Rome, Hapsburg Spain, preconquest Mexico, and other imperial regimes.

The Archaeology of Grotta ScaloriaRitual in Neolithic Southeast Italy

edited by ernestine s. elster, john robb, eugenia isetti, & antonella traverso

Grotta Scaloria, a cave in Apulia, was first discovered and explored in 1931, excavated briefly in 1967, and then excavated extensively from 1978 to 1980 by a joint UCLA– University of Genoa team, but it was never fully published. The Save Scaloria Project was organized to locate this legacy data and to enhance that information by application of the newest methods of archaeological and scientific analysis.

This significant site is finally published in one comprehensive volume (and in an online archive of additional data and photographs) that gathers together the archaeologi-cal data from the upper and lower chambers of the cave. These data indicate intense ritual and quotidian use during the Neolithic period (circa 5600–5300 BCE). The Grotta Scalo-ria project is also important as historiography, since it illustrates a changing trajectory of research spanning three generations of European and American archaeology.
